use by Federal grant-making agencies.
Agencies may use the SF–424 (Short) for
grant programs not requiring all the data
that is required on the SF–424 core data
set and form. This information
collection request also includes two
additional government-wide forms, the
Key Contacts form and the Project
Abstract form, each of which can be
used in conjunction with the SF–424 to
collect supplemental applicant data.
The Key Contacts form is an optional
form that the agencies may use to collect
additional key contact or point of
contact information. The Project
Abstract form is also an optional form
that provides the mechanism for the
applicant to attach a file that contains
an abstract of the project, in a format
specified by the agency.
The SF–424 (Short) and supplemental
data set and forms are currently
available for use as part of the electronic
application process of Grants.gov,
which was deployed in October 2003
and is part of the implementation of the
Federal Financial Assistance
Management Improvement Act of 1999
(Pub. L. 106–107). Currently, six
agencies plan to continue the use of the
SF–424 (Short) in lieu of the SF–424 for
eligible grant programs.
Frequency: Recordkeeping, Reporting,
on occasion.
Affected Public: State, Local or Tribal
government; Farms; Not-for-profit
institutions, and Business or other forprofit.

one of the 26 E-Government initiatives,
managed by the Department of Health
and Human Services is publishing the
following summary of proposed
collection for public comment.
Interested individuals are invited to
send comments regarding any aspect of
this collection of information or any
other aspect of this collection of
information, including any of the
following subjects: (1) The necessity and
utility of the proposed information
collection for the proper performance of
the agency’s functions; (2) the accuracy
of the estimated burden; (3) ways to
enhance the quality, utility, and clarity
of the information to be collected; and
(4) the use of automated collection

technology to minimize the information
collection burden.
Type of Information Collection
Request: Extension.
Title of Information Collection: SF–
424 Individual.
Form/OMB No.: 4040–0005.
Use: The discretionary SF–424 was
established as the government-wide
standard data set and form for
Discretionary grant applications on July
31, 2003 [Federal Register Notice 68 FR
44974]. The SF–424 consolidates grant
application related data and forms
currently used by Federal grant-making
agencies and organizations for their
discretionary grant programs and
replaces numerous agency-specific
forms. The effect has been to reduce the
administrative burden to the Federal
grants community, which includes
applicants/grantees and Federal staff
involved in grants-related activities. Use
of the standard data elements was
implemented through the electronic
grants application process of Grants.gov,
PO 00000
Frm 00072
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
which was deployed in October 2003
and is part of the implementation of the
Federal Financial Assistance
Management Improvement Act of 1999
(Pub. L. 106–107). Federal agencies and
applicants under discretionary grant
programs now use the standard SF–424
discretionary data set and definitions for
paper and electronic applications.
Federal agencies will not be required to
use the SF–424 (I) nor be required to
collect all of the information included
in the proposed data set. The agency
will identify the data that must be
provided by applicants through
instructions that will accompany the
application package.
Frequency: Recordkeeping, Reporting,

Households.
